Ear speculum, reusable
A rigid plastic or metal tube that is cone-shaped (i.e., it tapers down from a standard instrument fitting size to a small opening) and is either hand-held and manually inserted, or fitted onto a compatible otoscope, and then inserted into the ear canal to ...
Root canal post, preformed
A prefabricated endodontic rod designed for insertion into the root canal of a patient to support and retain a crown prosthesis. It is typically a solid, cylindrical, metal (e.g., stainless steel, gold alloy) piece with a proximal end appropriate to support...
Surgical mallet
A hand-held manual surgical instrument designed to strike a surface or another device (e.g., a surgical chisel, gouge, driver) to drive it during a surgical intervention. It is available in a variety of designs and materials; the shaft is typically made of ...
Fixed-diameter cervical dilator, reusable
A rod-like, solid surgical instrument designed to dilate the cervical canal after its insertion through the cervical os. Commonly known as a uterine dilator, it is typically made of metal or plastic material and has a tapered, rounded distal tip. It may hav...
Endodontic plugger
A hand-held, manually-operated, dental instrument specifically designed to compress filling materials in a root canal, mainly in an axial direction. The working distal end is cylindrical or tapered, circular in cross-section, and has a flat-tipped end. This...
Middle ear pick
A fine, hand-held manual surgical instrument intended to be used to manipulate the structures of the middle ear (e.g., the stapes). It is typically comprised of a proximal handle that tapers to a shaft which terminates in a fine distal tip bent at 90 degree...
Endoscopic-access dilator, single-use
A device intended to be used to dilate a body lumen or access channel to facilitate the introduction of endoscopic instruments percutaneously (through the skin) or through a natural orifice (e.g., urethra). It may be a flexible or rigid rod/tube with a tape...
Soft-tissue surgical hook, reusable
A hand-held, shaft-like, manual surgical instrument designed for hooking and applying traction to specific soft-tissues of interest (e.g., skin, vessel, organ, and/or duct) to allow surgical intervention on those tissues. It is not primarily designed for pu...
Urethral bougie, reusable
A rod-like manual surgical instrument designed to explore the urethra and/or to dilate a urethral and/or urinary meatus stenosis. It is designed with a semi-rigid tapered shaft that terminates at the distal end in a small bulbous tip (an olive) and it typic...
Endoscopic-access dilator, reusable
A device intended to be used to dilate a body lumen or access channel to facilitate the introduction of endoscopic instruments percutaneously (through the skin) or through a natural orifice (e.g., urethra). It may be a flexible or rigid rod/tube with a tape...
Oesophageal bougie, reusable
A cylindrical, rod-like, surgical instrument that is used to explore and/or dilate a stricture during oesophagoscopic or bronchoscopic procedures. It may be designed with a semi-rigid tapered end (Maloney type) or with a blunt end (Hurst type), and may be h...
Vascular graft tunneller
A long, surgical instrument used to tunnel an artificial passageway along vascular tissue planes to create a connecting channel typically for the introduction of a vascular graft or a vascular prosthesis. It can have a variety of designs, but basically it w...
Laparoscopic access cannula dilator
A hollow dilator with a tapered distal end intended to enable the gentle insertion of a larger laparoscopic access cannula, necessary when significantly increasing the working access port's lumen, e.g., from 10 to 20 mm diameter. It is commonly used in mini...
Endodontic filling material condenser
A dental instrument that uses heat to condense an endodontic filling material in a root canal, in the axial/lateral direction. The working part is typically cylindrical or tapered, and circular in cross-section. A condenser is commonly used to function as a...
Meniscus knife
A surgical instrument designed to apply pressure to and/or cut the crescent-shaped disk of fibrocartilage that borders and partly covers the articulating surfaces of the tibia and femur at the knee (meniscus). At the proximal end is a handle, sometimes T-sh...
Heart valve annulus sizer, reusable
A hand-held manual surgical instrument intended to be used during heart valve repair or replacement that enables evaluation of the valve opening (patent annulus) into which the appropriately sized annuloplasty ring or replacement valve will be implanted. It...
Manual endodontic filling material spreader
A hand-held, manually-operated dental instrument specifically designed to compress filling materials in a root canal, mainly in a lateral direction. The working part is tapered, circular in cross-section and has a pointed tip. This is a reusable device.
Sacroiliac joint intra-articular arthrodesis implant
An implantable device designed to achieve and maintain the distraction of degenerated articular surfaces of the sacroiliac joint to assist in intra- and extra-articular bone grafting and fusion (arthrodesis), typically performed to alleviate pain from the s...
Endodontic broach, serrated, reusable
A hand-held, manual, dental, cutting instrument with a slender, tapered, serrated/barbed tip intended to be used for shaping and enlarging holes in root canal tissue, particularly dentine, or for extirpating pulp. This is a reusable device.
